Sickness often comes to us
And there are times we're in dispare
But there's a day that's coming
When when we won't have a care
The sting of death will all be gone
A new song we shall sing
When we cross over Jordan
Our new life will begin
Oh to look upon his face
And see his nail scared hands
I can't wait to see it all
When I reach that promised land
So make your reservations
Get prepaired to go
It's a one way flight to Gloryland
It's in your future...Just so you know
We all must make the journey
For this life one day will end
And your soul will be required of you
Its just the beginning ...Its not the end

Some day we'll see the other side
Where crystal waters flow
And the sting of death will be no more
Such peace and joy we'll know
I can't imagine their is a place
Where streets are made of gold
Up there we'll have a brand new life
And we will not grow old
To such a place, I long to be
Where a new song I shall sing
And stand before the Lord of Lords
There they've crowned him king of kings
Many souls have now crossed over
To that land beyond the sky
And one day too, I'll make that journey
Where I too shall dwell
With him on high

When I face a mountain
that looks impossible to climb
Or a burden
that brings me to my knees
or when it seems so unlikely
that a miracle I'll ever see
I call his name
and he meets the needl
he meets the need
and he never fails
he meets the need
He will prevail
every time I need an answer
or a miracle breakthrough
he meets the need
and he'll do the same for you
Now in times of desperation
I go searching just to find
An answer to a problem in my life
but deep inside I know the answer
is just one prayer away
when I call his name
he makes my wrongs alright

In these troubled times we live in
it's not easy just getting through
Often We find ourselves in turmoil
wondering just what we're going to do
but through the labor and all of the trials
if we'll just told to his faithful hand
You can believe he's going to be there
Bringing the victory as only he can
this is my day
this is my hour
and I'm gonna receive
unspeakable power
I'm gonna receive just what is mine
It's coming on in
and it's right on time
so hear me when I say
this is my day
when God says Gabriel
get your trumpet
it's almost time to play
I'm getting ready to call my children
and bring them home to stay
You talk about a grand homecoming
I'll be there forever to stay
praising God and shouting
hallelujah this is my day

I often wonder
what heaven will be like
they say the matchless Beauty there
is far beyond our human sight
But if Heaven held no beauty
For these eyes To behold
just see the face of Jesus
means more to me
than Heavens gold
I know I've got a mansion
In heaven someday
and I know
I'll never cry again
for he'll wipe
all tears away
when I stand in heaven
before the Savior
I will know a sweet release
And things will never be
the same again
for this is heaven
land of peace
Now there are days
the tears just feel my eyes
for my heart's
So touched with grief
But in heaven
There'll be no heartache
no sadness all pain will cease
And I can't wait
to join that number
where we'll see him
On his throne
and when he steps out on
the clouds for me
I'll be ready to go home

I never thought
that I would see this day
to have you and to hold you
just seemed so far away
you and I have come so far
And at this moment
here we are
this is not a dream
this is for real

This is for real
and you are here with me
this is for real
and I hope somehow you see
The love I have for you
Will last forever and its true
you need to know exactly how I feel
that what we have together
is for real

I promise you
I'll stay right by your side
and I'll be with you
until the day I die
through the thick
and through the thin
together we will win
I loved to you in the past
I love you still
there's just no doubt about it
this is for real

It's hard to think
this has happened
and I can't believe he is gone
But I know one thing for certain
my dad has made it home
he's gone where he will never see
another teardrop fall
But I know that
I'll see dad again
and it won't be very long
Oh and dad
I'll soon be there
standing by your side
you're there in gloryland
where are you now reside
in heavens beautiful city
that's been prepared by the lamb
dad you won't have to wait too long
for your family will join you at home
and we'll see you again
although I know
that he's in heaven
still I miss him
Right here at home
for you see
I loved him so
and my heart is yearning
to be where he has gone
but where he is
he will never say goodbye
that's why I know
I'll see dad again
whensies this splits
those Eastern Skies
This poem/song was written in memory of my late father who went on to be with the Lord April 3rd 1995 if you have a loved one in heaven may the words of this poem/song encourage your heart
